These manuals are for experienced users such as software developers and technical support personnel. Before using PJL commands, developers should be familiar with the introductory information in chapters 1, 2, and 3 and with the programming tips in chapter 11 of the PJL Technical Reference Manual. In addition, users should be acquainted with the HP LaserJet Printer Command Language (PCL) and with HP LaserJet printer features. Application developers The Printer Job Language Technical Reference Manual and Printer Job Language Technical Reference Addendum provide developers with all of the information that is required to add PJL to software programs. Examples that are used throughout the manual help developers write efficient and correctly functioning code. Technical support personnel The Printer Job Language Technical Reference Manual and Printer Job Language Technical Reference Addendum provide reference information for network administrators and other technical support personnel who manage multi-user systems. The use of PJL can significantly enhance network printer operation. Non-technical users Non-technical users can use the features of PJL by using software that supports PJL.
